Colour Blind Eyes

from Swimming Through The Milky Way by Paul The Kid

lyrics

It's 102 degrees in here and I just can't take the pressure
This music that I write does it have the depth it should?
Ahhh come man, take it easy, stay up late watching TV
Show after show after show after show
With Michael Scott and the Venture Bros
These tranquil episodes they sooth my cramps and clear the cobwebs
That hang like a necklace from around my chest
What is existence?
I cannot go on
I cannot think about it anymore anymore anymore anymore
I just wanna hit the floor go to sleep and never wake up…

And everybody told us that we were gonna go the whole way
Whole way
Whole way

And everybody told us that one day we'd have it made
We’d have it made
We’d have it made

But what they never mentioned was that nobody knows
Nobody knows

Through my colour blind eyes I feel it just goes to show
Goes to show

We're all lost in the nothingness living out eternity

It's 102 degrees in here and I just can't take the pressure
Everything I do does it really take me further?
Come on Paul take it easy
Your brain is going zee zee
Every thing you think about it it causes more uneasyness
Inside your body space and time you cannot stop it
We are the aliens
Inside my head
What is existence?
I cannot go on
I cannot think about it anymore anymore anymore anymore
I just wanna hit the floor go to sleep and never wake up…

And everybody told us that we were gonna go the whole way
Whole way
Whole way

And everybody told us that one day we'd have it made
We’d have it made
We’d have it made

But what they never mentioned was that nobody knows
Nobody knows

Through my colour blind eyes I feel it just goes to show
Goes to show

We're all lost in the nothingness living out eternity

Through my haze eyes I can't seem to grip on this so called reality
Suicide is on the up and up you know I cannot blame them
We've completely lost our grip on our place on the Earth
And this Universe we live in

Ours egos are so big we cannot find a way around it
I’m scared of the little things, this life it too real to go
It’s like everything makes me sick
There’s jealousy, depression and mind is thinking too much I’m wasting time
I’m getting older

And 30 years on I still haven’t found my place
I can’t find a career so I’ll wander away
And 2AM rolls around I got no thoughts of going to bed
Going to bed
I’m wide awake with birthday cake
Writing down lyrics to share
But no one heard a peep for weeks
And I’m the one still counting down years
Through my colour blind eyes I feel it just goes to show
Goes to show
We're all lost in the nothingness living out eternity…
